“Hockey players are different than other athletes. You get hit in the face and they get cut and you go in and you get sewed up and you come back out and play. I’ve very seldom in 30-something years seen a player that doesn’t do that.. Spit your teeth in your hands. ‘Put me in, coach.’”

- Los Angeles Kings coach Darryl Sutter

There’s a reason you can (and many reporters do) describe all my favourite players as “carrying the team on his back.”
Trevor Linden:
The highlight of course was leading the Canucks to within a goalpost of the Stanley Cup in Game Seven of the 1994 Cup Finals. Scoring two goals while playing through broken ribs and torn rib cartilage in one of sport’s most pressure-packed situations, Linden singlehandedly carried a tired, injured and underdog hockey club on his back.

Also, the Capitals just announced Ovechkin played his last two games on a broken foot, except he’s playing for Russia at the Worlds right now.

I remember posting somewhere once in a thread about why girls aren’t exploited in animation anymore where some guy said, “all the disney girls are drawn to be generally attractive, but I don’t think there are any eye-candy men… or are there? Are there any Disney men that lots of girls like?” and I mentioned Roger. Tons of girls replied agreeing with me and the original guy was like “wait, Roger? from 101 Dalmatians? What’s attractive about him, he’s tall and lanky and has a big nose, he isn’t muscley at all! Wouldn’t you all prefer Gaston or something? Or do you girls think his big nose is indicative of something else?” and I was like “no, you idiot, he’s a silly, goofy guy who likes animals and can play a bunch of instruments, that’s why he’s attractive. What’s the matter with you? Gaston, seriously?”

This is why we need more girls in animation. And more guys like Roger apparently.

my favorite disney art style

lol “gaston, seriously?”

NOT TO SHIT ON ROGER OR ANYTHING BUT GIVE ME SHANG OR GIVE ME DEATH.

Prince Eric is more my type, but he seemed a little slow on the uptake, so…

I imprinted so hard on Roger (and Dalmatians, actually).

For your live action reboot consideration: Arthur Darvill and Karen Gillan as Roger and Anita.

The book! It’s out!
Matthew loves his dog and his garden. He doesn’t love the club scene. But just when he’s decided to stop looking for love, Amie drags him away to her grandparents’ beach house, where they discover Louis, her cousin, has been hiding out all summer. He’s there trying to write a musical; Matthew is trying not to make a fool of himself in front of his three best friends.
It’s summer savory which brings Matthew and Lou together, in the garden, near the beach, on the last weekend before summer comes to an end.

Reblogging for QUICKIE and also because as I learned last week at a certain point during the game I get way too nervous and worry about jinxing them.

That’s the sign of a true hockey fan. Sometimes, I don’t even watch games at all.

YouTube - Station Х: 1. The keys to the reich 1996

I finally watched The Bletchley Circle last night, which means I also spent a lot of time on Wikipedia last night. This is an OK documentary if you want to know more about the codebreakers at Bletchley Park, but the best parts are the reunions.

They gathered together these women, who broke codes at Station X, who transcribed Morse Code in far-flung Y stations, who did the actual work of maintaining Alan Turing’s deciphering machine, who did the typing, the filing, the indexing. Most of them hadn’t talked about what they did during the war since the war. They all look and talk like my own British granny, trading stories and photos over tea at The Enigma Tavern, except they can still recite the lists of codewords they used in the 1940s and recall practical jokes they played on visiting Admirals.

“There were folks who were surprised I was there, but that surprise was always “Oh! Cool! You’re here!” rather than “Why are you here?” And that, of course, is a salient difference. No one questioned my reasoning for being there, or suggested, say, that I was a Fake Romance Boy, or quizzed me about who my favorite romance author was or if I could recite that author’s bibliography to their satisfaction.”

so, a couple of months ago, this happened on twitter:

@fuzzydinosaur: this pair of stoop books makes me a little nervous. [see above photo]

@factsarenot: Is “stoop books” a thing? That could be a tumblr.

since “stoop books” are TOTALLY a thing in brooklyn — i listened to jess and made it a tumblr. scroll through brooklynstoopbooks.tumblr.com and you’ll see what i’ve come upon in the last few months… though i don’t think any surpass this original amazingness seen above.

YAY.
